i have been doing some research on dark energy and dark matter and
general news says that all the information scientists have found and
discovered have already been posted on every astronomical and
astrophysical website, magazine, etc.. possible. although i doubt that
i can only find a little bit of information on the subject no matter
how i much i dig

Dear Sitav,
Please let me encourage you to research these topics on the Web, or also
in a public or university library if you can get to one. I must admit
that I've heard a great deal about dark matter and lately dark energy
also, but have yet to research this area. Your question gives me an
occasion to do so.
Maybe would could both read some articles, and then discuss them; I'll
look at some of the sources that have been mentioned in this thread.
Also, I would agree with Thomas Womack that some very helpful versions
of recent journal articles are available on the Web. This is a fine
resource, and this summer I've found some papers on M25, an open star
cluster in Sagittarius that I saw through my new telescope, and also
M24, the Small Sagittarius Star Cloud, which I saw soon after.
A general rule is that the Web has lots of helping things; but still,
it can be only "the tip of the iceberg" when compared to journals
that don't get published on the Web, at least not on an open basis
for people who aren't subscribers. I'd say it's amazing how generous
people can be with making things open to the world, and that libraries
are also a great resource in the area of astronomy.
Thank you again for asking a question which has me curious about these
new developments in astronomy and physics.
Most appreciatively,
Margo Schulter

www.arxiv.org contains most recently-published papers in astrophysics.
http://arxiv.org/find/grp_physics/1/abs:+AND+dark+energy/0/1/0/all/0/1
gives you the most recent thousand about dark energy, in the same way
that
http://arxiv.org/find/grp_physics/1/abs:+AND+transiting+exoplanet/0/1/0/all/0/1
gives you the 72 papers they have about transiting exoplanets.
